With their third single, Addicted, London’s own drum ’n’ bass disruptors Obsidian Cane and Gizella turn the heat up another few notches, proving once again that their brand of genre-bending alchemy is built for both the underground and the open road. Dropping July 30th via Reset Records UK, the track is a shimmering fusion of far Eastern-inspired melodies, jungle-laced grooves, and the kind of playful vocal work that makes you want to hit repeat before the first listen is even over.

From the jump, Obsidian Cane’s production feels like a masterclass in control—fast-paced without feeling frantic, subdued without losing energy. It’s the kind of balance you only get from someone who’s been in the trenches of the UK scene for decades, shaping sounds for Warner Bros, EMI, and BBC productions while still keeping his ear firmly pressed to the dancefloor. There’s a breezy confidence in the way the bass rolls and the percussion snaps, framing the track’s summer-soaked mood without drowning it in nostalgia.

Then comes Gizella—London’s self-proclaimed “vocal chameleon,” a title she’s more than earned since her 1998 debut on Gotcha! Records. Here, she slips into the role of the hopeless romantic with sly precision, weaving between seduction and surrender in a way that feels both intimate and untouchable. Her voice floats over the beat like sunlight glancing off water, an anchor point in a track that otherwise thrives on movement and momentum.

Lyrically, Addicted flirts with obsession but never lets it get too heavy—it’s romance reframed as a rhythm, longing set to a loop. The result is an emotional sweet spot that makes the track as suited for late-night headphone sessions as it is for open-air festival stages.

This release follows the duo’s well-received singles “Never Change” and “Crazy World,” both of which earned praise from EDM Magazine and Playy Magazine, and even drew Björk comparisons for Gizella’s vocal work. But Addicted feels like the most distilled version of what they do best: bending drum ’n’ bass into something sleek, soulful, and sun-drenched without sanding down its edge.

Obsidian Cane and Gizella aren’t just keeping drum ’n’ bass on the map—they’re redrawing the borders entirely. And if this is the sound of their rebellion, we’re more than happy to get hooked
